Look at my site - livinginrhyme.com - click on Blog, then the RSS subscribe button, and you can see what I'm talking about.

To add - personally, I use Safari 2.0.4 since I'm a Mac user. It doesn't bring up the RSS subscribe button correctly either.

To add - now the RSS feed works perfectly with Safari 2.0.4. Or at least it is on my laptop. It doesn't work with the older Safari I have on my desktop, and it isn't working with the newer browser my son uses at work on a PC.

Safari and other KHTML-based browsers are sensitive to the MIME types used when files are sent. Your RSS feed is being sent as "application/xhtml+xml", but the proper MIME type for an RSS feed is "application/rss+xml" according to RFC 3023. The PNG icon has the right MIME type, so I'm not sure why that isn't displaying right for you.
Your site appears to be hosted on an Apache server, so try creating a file named ".htaccess" in the Blog directory and putting the following line in there:
AddType application/rss+xml xml
That should fix your RSS problem.

It all depends on what browser your visitors are using. Some will format RSS feeds by default others don't.
For instance on a PC Internet Explorer 6 will not automatically detect a link as an RSS feed while Internet Explorer 7 will. Firefox does as well. On a Mac Safari will format it correctly, but Camino won't necessarily.
Now that you have a website you need to be aware that your visitors use a range of web browsers to access your site.
There are ways to make it easier for people to sign up to your RSS feed.
I'd suggest submitting your link to feedburner.com
That will direct visitors to a page where they can subscribe to your feed more easily. You can also get lots of useful stats on who is using you RSS feed.
I use Google Reader to view all my feeds. It's free, and because I view it in a browser, I'm not tied to any particulat machine or location to access the feeds that I'm interested in.
Good luck with the site.
By the way, you can download IE7 for free from microsoft.com
Just out of interest which browser are you using.

Wow... The watch tower bible and tract society is a multi-billion dollar business enterprise. they have shares in 5 businesses that manufacture and distribute weapons of conflict, countless scientific businesses inclusive of one that makes a speciality of cloning, Disney, movie businesses that distribute gentle middle porn, and SOOO many greater. It would not sound like they prepare what they pontificate. This business enterprise will in no way save every person from Armageddon. it fairly is a guy made business enterprise that makes use of the religion for tax purposes. purely Jesus can save your soul in case you % to outlive paradise earth after He destroys it, then makes it returned. there's a asserting, "the line to hell is paved with solid intentions"... think of approximately it.
